The only explanation to this is that Felipao is adapting to Mexico rather than them adapting to us. This is as sign that Felipao recognizes that Mexico's wingers are dangerous and that Alves is a big liability. It's a good sign that Felipao is aware of our weakness, just a crappy solution. I'd say a tie here is not a bad result. We can beat Cameroon and let Croatia and Mexico duke it out.
If you look at it from a very pragmatic way then yea you are right but I'm sure everyone including the players on the team are sick of not beating Mexico.
I am disappointed Willian isnt starting in Hulk's place. He's more creative than Ramires and works tirelessly defensive to win the ball back.
We shouldn't have lost the Olympic final but it isn't like they beat each every time we played them in the 4 years.
No. But understandable the way it happened. Early goal on an individual mistake and then Mexico defended very well. Let's just not concede first and early today !
I heard on Spanish radio that Mexico plans to attack and put pressure for the first 15 to 20 minutes, then fall back. They think 1-1 would be a good result.
